Chapter Two: Unexpected and Expected Surprises

A week had passed; the former Ninja Storm team is meeting down at Ninja Op for their weekly conference. Tori and Blake arrive first. Cyber Cam is there to greet them.

"Yo dudes wassup? Tori-Tor, man you are still babacilious after all this time."

She smiled, "hey Cyber Cam, are Cam and Hunter here yet?"

The replica shook his head, "nope, but I know they got some good news."

"Did they say what?" Blake wanted to know. "We've got some good news too," he said sharing a smile with Tori.

"Nope, I tried buggin' my bro about it, but when he started threatening about reformatting my system. I backed off."

The couple shared a grin, recalling how Cam did that on a daily basis.

Tori smiled and kneeled on her old, slightly faded crushed velvet blue pillow. Blake followed the suit, looking around their old Command Center. "Man this place has changed."

After salvaging what they could, the team began to piece back what had once been the adventure of their lives.

Tori sifted through a small pile of rubble, she then came across a picture. Most of the glass was gone, part of the frame broken away. The picture was still in good condition, though covered in dust. She gently blew the dust away, wiping away the clinging remains. She looked at the picture and smiled at the baby who had become a big brother to her. She rose and walked over to Cam, silently handing him the picture.

Cam took the photo and smiled. "Thanks Tor," he murmured.

Hunter walked up behind his now lover, wrapping his arm around Cam's shoulders, ignoring Tori's curious stare. He felt Cam's shoulder's stiffen slightly and smirked to himself. "Don't tell me you're getting shy after last night."

Cam blushed brightly, "why don't you just broadcast it to the whole city?" he asked dryly.

Tori smirked widely at Cam's blush, she turned and marched over to the other three and held her hand out to them. "I win, pay up."

"What? No way dude!" Dustin exclaimed. He looked at the Samurai and Crimson Ninja to confirm. Cam glared at him while Hunter had a Cheshire cat smile on his face. "Hunter, man I can't believe you got laid last night!"

"Dude, do not use "Hunter" and "laid" in the same sentence, that's just wrong," Blake commented.

"Aw, you're just mad 'cause you're not getting any," Shane teased.

Tori threw a well-aim piece of wood at Shane, glaring at him. "Don't even go there. Now pay up."

"Would someone mind telling us what is going on?" Cam asked.

"Dude, we all made a bet on when you two would hook up, Me an' Shane said it be sometime after we got the schools back in order. Blake said it'd be like right after that thing with Motodrone, y'know, after you two stayed in that lab for so long," he added with an impish grin "Tor said it'd be right after we defeated Lothor."

"How much was the bet?" Hunter wanted to know.

"Twenty bucks, each," Shane said as he and the others grumbled about losing their cash to her.

Tori smirks and counts the cash and looks up when Hunter and Cam come into their view.

"We want half," Hunter announced.

Tori raised an eyebrow at him, "excuse me?"

"You heard him; I think we're entitled to some of it since neither of us knew about this bet. And what possessed you four to bet on our love lives?" Cam wanted to know.

Tori mock grumbled under her breath and handed each of them twenty bucks. "You wanna know why? You two have not stopped shooting each other looks of longing ever since they joined the team. You both have gone out of the way to do things with each other that you would have never done before meeting. Need I say more?"

Hunter stared at her, only remarking: "You have way too much time on your hands."

"No, it's called the power of observation."

"Ok guys; let's just get back to work, alright?" Shane interrupted before Tori and Hunter stared sparring and they'd never get anything done.

The others nodded and silently went back to work.

Fifteen minutes had passed before Blake's voice broke through the silence. "Will our lives ever be the same again?"

"Tori! Blake!"

Tori snapped out of her reminiscence, looking up she saw Dustin and Marah, followed by Shane and Kapri, coming down the steps. She rose the same time as Blake did, walking over to their friends. The girls chatted while the guys about Dustin's upcoming Freestyle event.

"Hey guys…"

"Cam, Hunter, dude you guys look great!" Dustin exclaimed with his usual enthusiasm.

"Dustin," Hunter greeted, clasping hands with him and pulling him into a bear hug.

After hugs and how are yous were exchanged, they all gathered around the table.

"Ok you two, we're all here, what's the big news?" Blake asked.

"Well, two things, one…" Cam leaned down and placed a book on the middle of the table. The others quickly leaned over to get a good look. The cover had a purple background; in the middle were the Rangers, Shane in the middle with Tori and Dustin going to his left and Blake, Hunter and Cam going to his right. On the top in bold white was printed 'Love and Rangering: The Untold Story'. Underneath in smaller lettering 'by Cameron David Bradley-Watanabe'.

"Oh dude," Dustin breathed in awe and shock.

"Cam, how did…? How'd you…?" Shane stuttered.

"Mostly it's from watching past battles, but it's really about us. I thought the world should know about us."

"But what about the Academies?" Blake asked.

"They are mentioned briefly, but the locations aren't given, nor are the names. They'll be assumed they're private schools and Sensei Amino and dad can totally back that up," Hunter said.

"Wow, Cousin this is amazing!" Marah exclaimed, flipping through the pages. "There are even pictures in here!"

The four former Rangers looked at Cam in alarm. He quickly reassured them. "It's alright you guys. Since we aren't in uniform anymore, it's fine to show who we are. Besides, there have been records of past Rangers revealing themselves, on purpose or on accident."

Dustin nodded, recalling the Ranger history. "So, what other big news do you two have?"

Cam and Hunter exchanged looks, smiling at each other. "We're gonna adopt a baby," Hunter announced.

Shouts of excitement filled Ninja Ops.

"No way dudes!"

"Awesome man!"

"Wonderful!"

"Wait to go bros!"

"Go Cousin!"

After all the congratulations died down, Blake took Tori's hand and smiled at her. She smiled back, nodding slightly.

"Hey guys? Tor and I got some good news too." He pauses, grinning.

"Get on with it!" Dustin and Shane shout.

"We're getting married!" Tori exclaimed.

"'Bout time!" Dustin shouted gleefully.

"Ok, who won the bet this time?" Shane wanted to know.

"You guys bet on when we'd get married?" Tori said.

"Duh," Hunter remarked, "consider it mine and Cam's revenge."

"Oh just you wait," Tori mock threatened.

The sound of happy chatter about babies and weddings filled Ninja Ops.

Just outside, two sets of eyes watched the entrance to the cave. They could hear every word that the former team was saying. Hazel eyes met a pair of dark brown, nearly black eyes. They had been waiting patiently for three long years, but now revenge would be theirs.
